The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;1964 North Indian Ocean cyclone season&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; was a highly above average season becoming the most active since [[1936 North Indian Ocean cyclone season|1936]]. It one of the most active seasons for the time until the record was surpassed by [[1975 North Indian Ocean cyclone season|1975]]. It had no bounds, but cyclones tend to form between April and December, with peaks in May and November. The season has no official bounds but cyclones tend to form between April and December. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclones form in the northern [[Indian Ocean]]. There are two main seas in the North Indian Ocean—the [[Bay of Bengal]] to the east of the [[Indian subcontinent]] and the [[Arabian Sea]] to the west of India. The official [[Regional Specialized Meteorological Centre]] in this basin is the [[India Meteorological Department]] (IMD), while the [[Joint Typhoon Warning Center]] releases unofficial advisories. An average of four to six storms form in the North Indian Ocean every season with peaks in May and November.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;IMD&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.imd.ernet.in/services/cyclone/tropical-cyclone.htm |title=IMD Cyclone Warning Services: Tropical Cyclones |publisher=[[India Meteorological Department]] |accessdate=May 10, 2013 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081104064430/http://www.imd.ernet.in/services/cyclone/tropical-cyclone.htm |archivedate=4 November 2008 |url-status=dead }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Cyclones occurring between the meridians [[45th meridian east|45°E]] and [[100th meridian east|100°E]] are included in the season by the IMD.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|publisher=India Meteorological Department |date=January 2009 |accessdate=May 10, 2013 |title=Report on Cyclonic Disturbances Over the North Indian During 2008 |url=http://www.imd.ernet.in/section/nhac/dynamic/rsmc.pdf |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090529004113/http://www.imd.ernet.in/services/cyclone/tropical-cyclone.htm |archivedate=May 29, 2009 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Under the influence of the ongoing onset of the [[southwest monsoon]], a trough of low pressure developed over the Arabian Sea off the coast of [[Karnataka]] on June 6. It slowly moved northwards, and consolidated into a depression by the morning of June 9. The next morning, while the storm was moving northwestwards, the India Meteorological Department upgraded it to a Cyclonic Storm. Over the following days the storm intensified further into a very severe cyclonic storm, recurved northeastwards and crossed the coast of [[Gujarat]] near [[Naliya]] at a peak intensity of {{convert|969|hPa|inHg|abbr=on|sigfig=4}}. The system rapidly degenerated inland and dissipated into a low-pressure area on June 13. 27 deaths were reported due to the cyclone in India.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;SCSTwo&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal|journal=India Weather Review|author =India Meteorological Department|publisher=National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration|year=1964|accessdate=May 13, 2013|title=Annual Summary&amp;amp;nbsp;— Storms &amp;amp; Depressions: Severe cyclonic storm in the Arabian Sea|url=http://docs.lib.noaa.gov/rescue/cd024_pdf/005ED275.pdf|pages=3–8}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Prolonged rains associated with the system triggered severe flooding in Pakistan that killed 450&amp;amp;nbsp;people.
